Ampersand Publishing
always put out publications that are
detailed and full of great pics but also pretty good in value – we think that they have taken the cake with the detail, reference and price on their long
awaited opus “SON OF SHERMAN VOLUME 1:
The Sherman, Design and Development” If you like this tank then you really
should take a look this preview..
Due to the sheer breadth of the subject matter, the original
Modeler’s Guide to the Sherman has now been split into multiple volumes under
the banner of “Son of Sherman.”
A complete and illustrated description of the U.S. M4 Sherman
tank series in the Second World War
Written and edited by Patrick Stansell and Kurt Laughlin
Based on original material created by Pete Harlem
This brand new book is composed of lavishly illustrated and
comprehensive essays on:
• Each Sherman type by factory with sub-sections on large
small hatch
• All 75mm turret types
• All 76mm turret types
• Final drive assemblies
• Running gear (suspension and tracks)
• The factories that built the Sherman
• Transporting the Sherman to the battlefield
• Appliqué armour and the remanufacturing process
• Production and registration data
